Pros
The formula flows like a transparent, moisturizing gel. I have sensitive, oily skin, you see? I haven't smelled it, but I remember using it without any discomfort, so it must have been fine. A small amount produces a lot of lather.
Cons
The cleansing power is not great, so I have to wipe it off several times. That means it's quite gentle, right? But something keeps coming up on my skin, so it might be the same as this one. I'm also using other foam cleansers from this brand (since this one has poor cleansing power), but I'm just trying this one for now. Judging by the fact that it hasn't settled down yet, it seems like both of them are problematic. Not recommended for sensitive skin.

Pros
I've been using this cleansing gel for over 10 years and I think I've gone through at least 20 bottles of it. I've tried all sorts of other cleansing products, but I always make sure to have the Appakla Purifying Foaming Gel on hand. It's really gentle, yet it leaves my skin feeling clean, refreshed, and not at all dry or tight. The subtle, gentle fragrance also makes me feel good every time I use it.
Cons
Personally, I don't have any complaints about this product at all :)

Pros
The cleansing power is great and the lather is rich and creamy. After washing, there is no tightness and my skin feels moisturized.
Cons
The price is quite expensive for an offline purchase. While the cleansing power is good, it may cause some tightness for those with dry skin.

Pros
After cleansing, it is moisturized and there is no tightness. Due to the mask, I kept getting acne, but after completely switching to the Effaclar line, it improved.
Cons
If you like a squeaky clean feeling after cleansing, it may be disappointing, and the watery formula feels lightweight.

Pros
It was more moisturizing and nice than I expected. You can cleanse just with this without having to use a cleansing balm or anything else, and it works well.
Cons
The disappointing part was that it would sometimes ooze out of the tube opening. It seemed like the dispenser wasn't working properly, though that wasn't always the case.
Tip
I'm using it with an egg device. Since my hands touch it less, it seems to be less irritating.

Pros
It's not at all drying and provides great moisture. No irritation, good moisture, and it even helps calm my acne a bit. There was one time when my acne flared up again, and the dermatologist actually recommended this product that I was already using.
Cons
The price... And personally, I don't feel the effects as strongly as when I first started using it. But other than that, it's good.

Pros
🎈Skin Type - Sensitive, Dry, Combination (Oily T-zone, Dry U-zone) 🎈 🤎 Cleansing Power 🤎 As it is a mild acidic product, I mainly used it in the morning. Like most gel cleansers, it doesn't have a squeaky clean feeling, but it gently cleanses the skin well. The cleansing power is also good! 🤎 Moisturizing 🤎 Gel cleansers don't dry out the face, so I've been using this one a lot. It was also very moisturizing. It suits both men and women well, and my boyfriend, who has slightly dry skin, has been using his 3rd bottle comfortably! 🤎 Texture 🤎 It doesn't flow like water, but it's not as fixed in shape as a foam cleanser either. It's a true 'gel' cleanser! 🤎 Suitable for All Ages 🤎
Cons
I have extremely sensitive skin. When I use cleansers that don't suit me, I can feel a stinging sensation when the foam touches my skin, and then I immediately break out in bumps. 🤍 Breakouts 🤍 This was fine to use, but after using it, I had small breakouts that were <only on my nose area>. It's strange, so I ended up passing it on to my boyfriend. I really liked the texture, cleansing power, and the refreshing appearance, but it didn't work for me, which was a shame. 🤍 Squeaky Clean 🤍 I wouldn't recommend this to those who like the squeaky clean feeling after cleansing. This product is more of a soft, gentle cleanse.
Tip
Using a mild gel cleanser like this in the morning can be gentle on the skin and a good alternative to foam cleansers. Let's use gel cleansers more often in the morning! ღ'ᴗ'ღ

Pros
It's nicely good. While it effectively removes the skin's sebum and oiliness, the finish is still moisturizing, so it would be easy to just apply sunscreen on top. I never experienced any breakouts while using it. So I think those looking for a mild, low-irritation cleanser would really like it.
Cons
The cleansing power isn't bad, but it doesn't have that squeaky-clean feeling. (Of course, it would struggle to remove heavy makeup or overly oily foundation.) For me, that actually felt more moisturizing, which I liked. It doesn't feel tight. However, looking at the ingredients, I no longer feel comfortable recommending it for sensitive skin. Those concerned about the ingredients might want to try the Eucerin version, which has a similar feel but gentler formulation.
Tip
It's great for double cleansing. I use it after an oil cleanser, and it's a perfect match for dry skin.

Pros
My skin is combination-sensitive, partially oily and dry. As an extremely sensitive type, if the cleanser doesn't suit me, my skin gets dirty right away, so I try to choose a good one regardless of price. This mild acidic cleanser with good cleansing power is unbeatable. After cleansing, my skin feels moisturized without any residue. I first used it about 7 years ago and was very satisfied, but then I wandered around trying other unnecessary products. When I wanted to go back, I had forgotten the product name and struggled for a long time... I couldn't forget how good it was, and I finally found it again recently after a dramatic reunion. It's still great.
Cons
It's not very runny, but the formula flows down, so a pump container would be better.
Tip
I definitely recommend this for sensitive skin.

Pros
If you have sensitive skin and often experience breakouts before and after your period, I recommend this product. It's slightly acidic, so it cleanses away impurities while maintaining moisture, leaving your skin feeling clean but not dry. Surprisingly, I haven't experienced any breakouts since using this product.
Cons
It lacks fragrance, and the need for double cleansing after makeup application can be inconvenient.
Tip
Extensively rolling the product over your nose area can be beneficial during the summer, as it helps melt away excess oil and sebum that tend to accumulate there.
